sometimes I just want a scheduled C-Section.
I am so afraid of labor and delivery and the million things that can go wrong, not to mention the pain. That sometimes i just want to say schedule me a c-section.

Re: sometimes I just want a scheduled C-Section.
I 100% understand...the thought has crossed my mind as well.
The fear of delivery has to be perfectly normal though.

Fear of L&D is normal however, it's not that bad, at all!

Re: sometimes I just want a scheduled C-Section.
i'm the opposite. as fearful as i am of the whole labor process, i am hoping that a c-section won't be necessary even though it may be likely in my case  .

Re: sometimes I just want a scheduled C-Section.
A c/s is certainly not pain-free and if I'm not mistaken, has MORE risks involved than with a "natural" birth! In fact, 6 mos. later, my incision and surrounding area is still tender.
Anyway, when I was pregnant I was worried too, but I always reminded myself that millions of women, before, during and after me have done this (several times!) and I could too. It's so cliche, but you really do forget the pain, if not immediately, then within a couple of weeks 
Good luck to you; you'll do great!!

My friend is currently pregnant and feels the same! She is dreading L & D. We were due yesterday and will hold out as long as possible to avoid a CS but what ever will be will be...

Re: sometimes I just want a scheduled C-Section.
i looked into a scheduled c-section but in the end there are more risks and i decided against it.
i'm just going to let him do what he wantsand come when he's ready!

Re: sometimes I just want a scheduled C-Section.
Honestly, I was kind of hoping for one. I was really scared of the whole process of pushing and all that, but I guess its the fear of the unknown.

There are many more risks with a c-section. The only reason to do them is it's the quickest, easiest way out of the womb.
Just breathe. Your body does all of the pushing - you only push at the end. Your only job during the entire labor is to breathe through the pain. You'll do fine.

Re: sometimes I just want a scheduled C-Section.
I wanted one too - but i had such an great experience being induced and delivering naturally.
I totally recommend the epidural!!! and the recovery is so fast trust me!!! Its not all that bad - in fact its been 3 weeks already since my Julia was born and I can't wait to have another one!
